The Rockstar Games Social Club received a big, and much needed, visual overhaul earlier today, dubbed Social Club v1.1. The site's content not only looks better, but is also much more accessible (probably in anticipation for its role in GTA IV PC's video editing and uploading features).

Some of the new features to the site include the ability to choose a nickname separate from your Xbox Live or PlayStation Network gamertags, which will be used in coming features such as the Message Wall, and to create a list of friends, whose GTA IV stats and progress you can easily track.

Another interesting note is that Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars in the "Games" section is shown as "Coming soon." We'll keep you updated as any details of Chinatown Wars' involvement with the Social Club emerge.
